Software issue

I keep getting a request to allow or deny incoming connections from an app called Virtual Board Search. Does anyone know what that is?

I keep getting this application pop up: Do you want the application "SearchGeneralSignal" to accept incoming network connections? I had my local computer shop clean my Air and it quit for a while, but it is back. I have to deny or accept. Any ideas? How do I stop this "SearchGeneralSignal" popup? What is it even for?

Ultra Search APP Frequent pop up asking to allow or deny incoming network connection for an app that I cannot find on my Mac, "UltraSearchApp". Occasionally I can deny but more often I have to allow to get the pop up to go away. Does anyone else have this issue?

Do you want the application “TechFunctionSearch” to accept incoming network connections? I keep getting this message constantly. I don't see an application by that name. I have blocked Word, Powerpoint, Excel in the firewall settings. No help. I deleted the firewall file and restarted. No help.

Get Malwarebytes and see if it can remove it. It's browser malware.
